Several central nervous system infections have been acknowledged for the development of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVT). Nevertheless, CVT has been a rarely described addendum to the ever-evolving \u201cneuro-scrub\u201d spectrum. Proposed pathogenesis for the development of CVT is disseminated endotheliitis resulting in the triad of venous stasis (due to raised intracranial pressure), cerebral vasculopathy (endothelial damage), and capillary perivasculitis (endothelial damage and resultant hypercoagulable state generated by inflammatory mediators). We herein report a case of a previously healthy young female from the Indian subcontinent who was diagnosed with CVT, following scrub typhus. She responded well to conventional therapy with antibiotics and anticoagulants. CVT is amid the few completely reversible neurological catastrophes if diagnosed and treated early. Again, scrub typhus infection is treated with commonly available and extremely \"affordable\" antibiotics therapy. Hence, the authors propose that all cases of acute febrile illness with neurological manifestations from scrub-typhus endemic zones (like several parts of India) should be tested for the presence of Orientia tsutsugamushi infection and treated accordingly.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.18103\/mra.v10i10.3196","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,2]],"date-time":"2022-11-02T12:54:59Z","timestamp":1667393699000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis Following Scrub Typhus Infection: A Case Report and a Review of the Literature"],"prefix":"10.18103","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Uttam","family":"Biswas","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Medicine, Burdwan Medical College & Hospital, Burdwan, West Bengal, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ritwik","family":"Ghosh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Medicine, Burdwan Medical College & Hospital, Burdwan, West Bengal, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arghya","family":"Chakraborty","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Medicine, Burdwan Medical College & Hospital, Burdwan, West Bengal, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shakilur Rahaman","family":"Mondal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Medicine, Burdwan Medical College & Hospital, Burdwan, West Bengal, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dipayan","family":"Roy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biochemistry, All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India; Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Madras, Tamil Nadu, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arnab","family":"Bhattacharjee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Medicine, Burdwan Medical College & Hospital, Burdwan, West Bengal, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Debanjan","family":"Roy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Medicine, Burdwan Medical College & Hospital, Burdwan, West Bengal, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Juli\u00e1n","family":"Benito-Le\u00f3n","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology, University Hospital \u201c12 de Octubre\u201d, Madrid, Spain; Centro de Investigaci\u00f3n Biom\u00e9dica en Red Sobre Enfermedades Neurodegenerativas (CIBERNED), Madrid, Spain; Department of Medicine, Complutense University, Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"7483","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,31]]},"container-title":["Medical Research Archives"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/esmed.org\/MRA\/mra\/article\/download\/3196\/193546408","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/esmed.org\/MRA\/mra\/article\/download\/3196\/193546408","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,16]],"date-time":"2026-10-16T20:37:52Z","timestamp":1792183072000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/esmed.org\/MRA\/mra\/article\/view\/3196"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,31]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"10","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,31]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.18103\/mra.v10i10.3196","relation":{},"ISSN":["2375-1924","2375-1916"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2375-1924","type":"electronic"},{"value":"2375-1916","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,31]]}}}
